This is the classic variety of bleeding hearts or Dicentra, with deep pink hearts dripping from bowed stems. Mature plants produce large clumps with dozens of stems, plenty to enjoy in the garden, with still enough to snip for bouquets. Their delicate beauty belies their sturdy constitutions; they can manage even the -40 degree cold of zone 3 gardens. Bleeding hearts struggle in intensely dry climates. Popular for generations in cottage gardens and shady sites; it's easy to understand why.
